only thing that would change the timeline is new decisions by the president of the united states. it doesn't look as if he is going to do anything before the u.s. election or perhaps even afterwards. i think in the end it will rest in hands of israelis. i think the judge's point is right. israelis are saying look, that is a redline. if you component want to honor it or put it down, at least allow us to go out and defend ourselves. >> bret: the other foreign policy story to touch on is the lead story tonight. the benghazi attack. we had sources confirming to fox today that the u.s. government knew in the first 24 hours it was a terrorist attack on the compound in benghazi. and that within the 24 hours had a good idea it was al-qaeda affiliated group that was behind it. there has not been an f.b.i. agent on the ground in benghazi in the 16 day since this attack. despite the fact we heard from administration officials that this investigation is ongoing. we heard from defense secretary leon panetta about this who always said today that was a terrorist attack. >> terrorist attack, as w

the united states drew a clear red line and iran backed off. now, red lines could be drawn in different parts of iran's nuclear weapons program. but to be credible, a red line must be drawn first and foremost in one vital part of their program. on iran's efforts to enrich uranium. let me explain why. basically any bomb consists of explosive material and a mechanism to ignite it. the simplest example is gun powder in a fuse. that is, you light the fuse, and you set off the gun powder. in the case of iran's plans to build a nuclear weapon, the gun powder is enriched uranium. the fuse is a nuclear detonator. for iran amassing enough uranium is far more difficult than producing the nuclear fuse. for a country like iran it takes many, many years to enrich uranium for a bomb. that requires thousands of centrifuges spinning in tandem in very big industrial plants. those iranian plants are visible and they are still vulnerable. in contrast, iran could produce the nuclear detonator, the fuse in a lot less time. maybe under a year. maybe only a few month

tell us then how citizens united has made the united states a nation of corporations essentially and not people. >> well, citizens united transformed our politics in the same way that bush versus gore took the last decade from us in essence by deciding the election for that one lucky guy won the election because of the court's intervention. citizens united is really an effort to remake all of american politics in the image of large corporate wealth and large corporate power. we had essentially a wall of separation between corporate treasury wealth and public elections for many decades and the supreme court had said as far back as chief justice john marshall in the dartmouth as recently as chief justice rehnquist and other conservative justices like justice white that a corporation is not a person armed with political rights but it is an artificial entity that's an instrumentality of the state that's used for purposes of accumulating wealth, investing wealth and it does a great job at that. but we should never allow the corporations to breach the barrier between economics and politics
